2013-07-18 17:30:54 Oleksandr Pikozh summary Plugging the ac adapter in or out causes bash to think that some key is pressed Plugging the AC adapter in or out causes bash to think that some key is pressed
2013-07-18 17:30:54 Oleksandr Pikozh description What I do: 1. Start interactive bash (either by launching Konsole, or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 and filling login/password). 2. Plug AC adapter in (if it is not plugged) OR plug it out (if it's plugged). What happens: Bash asks me "Display all 4354 possibilities? (y or n)". Actually, it executes the menu-complete command, which is bound on Ctrl+` in my ~/.inputrc ("Ctrl-`: menu-complete"). Never-the-less it's quite strange for bash to accept Plugging-AC-in-or-out as "Ctrl-`". No other software that I tested (e.g. kate) accepts Plugging-AC-in-or-out as "Ctrl-`". Note, that it happens both in Konsole and in tty1-6. 1) Description: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS Release: 12.04 2) bash: Installed: 4.2-2ubuntu2.1 Candidate: 4.2-2ubuntu2.1 Version table: *** 4.2-2ubuntu2.1 0 500 http://mirror.mirohost.net/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4.2-2ubuntu2 0 500 http://mirror.mirohost.net/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages 3) I expected nothing to happen in bash when I plug in or plug out my AC adapter. 4) Bash think that some key is pressed when I plug in or plug out my AC adapter.
